A White House official says U.S. President Donald Trump will accept only an Iran deal that meets U.S. “red lines,” after a Situation Room meeting that runs about two hours and does not produce an announced decision. Multiple outlets report the official framed the talks around preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and making sure any agreement is “good for” the United States. Reporting from Middle East Eye, citing an Al Jazeera reference, says the White House position also centers on the removal of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile. The same report, citing a separate Israeli official, says there is concern Trump could accept an interim deal that does not fully address the risk of Iran retaining enriched uranium or deceiving Washington through vague commitments. Korea Times and other outlets also note that previous U.S. demands described as “red lines” include preventing a nuclear weapon, dealing with highly enriched uranium stockpiles, and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Overall, the sources depict continuing negotiations with no agreement finalized and uncertainty about what form, scope, and enforcement level any deal would need to satisfy the Trump administration’s conditions.
